tishadclova Jan 04, 2008	that was crazy
craniac May 25, 2008	That was fun -- easy too if you used the hint, not so easy if you didn't.
doehead May 25, 2008	Saw it before,but still a good one.
bradon182001 May 25, 2008	I thought this was a really good teaser. It must have taken a lot of thought to come up with this one. Oh, by the way, I didn't get it, I'm ashamed to admit.
auntiesis May 25, 2008	very good one, but I didn't get it.

gaylewolf May 25, 2011	I was trying to think of a word that began with the letter "D" and ended with an "E", so that by moving it to the end, it would be "ed" and therefore would be past tense. I was SO WAY OFF! Good teaser!
HABS2933 May 25, 2011	Didn't get it until I read the hint, and then it was obvious. Still a great teaser.
GreenApples27 May 25, 2011	I didn't get it until I read the hint. Very clever.
